I can assure you this works properly with totem, which properly uses
gstreamer information in RPM packages, allowing PackageKit to find and
offer to install support.  You do need to enable third-party
repositories to actually get those codecs, though, and that may have
legal repercussions in some parts of the world, which is why we can't
ship them out of the box:

I have setup sudo and used RPMFusion repository, and used yum to download
and installed them, during all process no error message encountered,
everything was done according to Peresonal Fedora 12 Installation Guide by
Mauriat Miranda. With same computer I did these once with F8 F10 and MPlayer
and Xine could work except problem with RealPlayer, this is the first time
encounter such media player malfunction, now the only thing I have doubt
that is the copy of F12 32bit, I downloaded it 3 times from different
sources, when I did the sha1sum check none of each coud pass, and I decided
to use the last download to install because when googled someone mention
there was a file heading problem in F12 sha1 check and could not produce
correct info for sha1sum check.
